Gohmert on President Trump’s Decision to Hold Back Funding From World Health Organization

Congressman Louie Gohmert (TX-01) released the following statement regarding President Trump’s decision to withhold funding from World Health Organization (WHO):

“President Trump did the right thing in withholding funding from the World Health Organization (WHO) and he should be thanked by every American. WHO frequently relayed false statements by China and joined the coverup of the contagiousness to humans and deadliness of the disease. The United States should not fund WHO again until when and if it undergoes major reforms and gets new leadership.

It is encouraging to see our President put the lives of Americans first throughout this crisis, instead of throwing away hundreds of millions of dollars each year on an organization that helped create a crisis by applauding lies from the source of the current pandemic.”
